munterdon,s peach Boom.

Hunterdon's Peach Boom.
Congressman Pidcock says: 81 am in
creasing the number of my peach trees as
rapidly as possible, and / am satisfied moth
ing pays better. Let man have one
good peach season and he can pay for the
land the trees cover. From the railroad
station near my home, there win be ship
ped this season total of 200, 900 baskets
Hunterdon county will produce clean
million of baskets altogether. / know
what am talking about. The peaches
are the finest in the market, because they
are raised on uplands in sandy loan. The
average price to the grower Is about 70
cents basket. That means 500, 900 re.
ceived by the land owners Of Hunterdon
for peaches alone, or nearly $40 for each
man, woman and child in the county. We
have sent peaches TO Baltimore this sea
son, in spite of all that is said of the fa-
nous Maryland peach crop."-7renton
